Dear Friend,
Before we conclude this year and
begin to focus on 2022, it is good for us to
take a moment to rejoice in
some good news of late: we are extremely grateful for Cardinal Burke’s
continued recovery as he regains his full strength from the
coronavirus. Our Cardinal patron is a true fighter!
This also reminds us pray for the people who have lost their
lives from COVID-19 in the past two years and any others who have
suffered from the general fallout from all this confusion.
Needless to say, the events of
2021 really put our Church to the test, as well
as many other apostolates dedicated to fighting for the truth of our
faith. We’ve seen an unprecedented pandemic, violence and social
chaos, back-to-back major natural disasters, a volatile US election,
and much more.
Certainly, one lesson we should
take away from this past year is that there is NO SUBSTITUTE for the
spiritual strength of the Catholic Church when she comes together as
one body in Christ to save souls! And, as St. Paul said to Timothy,
the Church must be about the salvation of souls “in season and out of season”
(2 Tim 4:2).
Therefore, a second take away from
this year is that we can never let up; in fact, as an apostolic
organization, we must escalate our work
and go on the offensive for the glory of God.
But to make this happen, we NEED
YOUR HELP!
Looking ahead to 2022, I want to
assure you above all of my continued prayers as well as those from the
hundreds of thousands of Rosary Warriors around the world. We are a team of spiritual souls united in a common
mission, and prayer binds us
together.
As a supporter of Catholic Action for Faith and
Family, you know we
place faith and family at the
center of our mission. Supporters like you make it
possible for us to adapt and continue our work defending the two
sacred institutions given to us by divine authority:
the Catholic Faith handed down to us from the Apostles and the
family as the fundamental
unit of society. We’re proud to
say that even when most of the country shut down these past two years,
our mission would not let up. We operate with the belief that the
Church (and her many dynamic lay apostolates like ours) serves as a
guide for society as a whole. Her strength and spiritual resources have a deep conditioning
effect for the good on the course of history.
Catholic Action for Faith and
Family has a critical responsibility in this regard because we are
especially charged with the mission of mobilizing the active
participation of the laity in the apostolate of the Church under the
guidance of the hierarchy. Simply stated: our mission is to
re-Christianize a society drained of faith.
And we depend on YOU to help us
start the New Year off
right!
Please, make
your tax-deductible donation before midnight to help us reach our goal
and to help uphold, defend and support the Catholic Faith and the
Catholic Family!
I am certain that God and His most holy Mother will bless
and reward you and your family a hundredfold for your
efforts!
We call especially upon the
intercession of Our Lady of the Rosary to bless and protect
you, your loved ones, and your homes. Thank you for all your incredible support
this past year, and we wish you a safe, healthy, and happy New
Year!
Gratefully yours in
Christ,
Thomas J. McKenna Founder and President Catholic Action for
Faith and Family
P.S. If you have
already made your end of year gift, thank
you! Your donation will
make a real difference in fighting the good fight of faith and for our
Church that we love.
P.P.S. – I hope
you might be one of those willing to help us reach tens of millions of
Catholics and more across America during the pivotal year of 2022 with a gift of $35, $50, $100, $145, or
even more.
Finally, there is not a better way
to ring in the New Year than joining His Eminence Raymond Cardinal
Burke and hundreds of thousands of Rosary Warriors in Operation Storm
Heaven; our spiritual crusade to
storm heaven with prayers for our lives and to combat the darkness of
the present confusion, error and division in the Church
today.
